White Elephant is an exciting and fun game that can be played at family gatherings or office parties. It's a great way to exchange gifts between friends and family, but it can also get expensive if you're not careful. Fortunately, there are plenty of ways to make your own White Elephant gifts that will still be appreciated by the recipient. Here are some tips on how to make a gift for White Elephant:
1. Think outside the box - Instead of buying something generic like a mug or candle, think of something more creative and unique that the recipient would appreciate. Consider their hobbies, interests, favorite colors or movies when choosing your gift idea.
2. Get crafty - Making your own White Elephant gifts doesn't have to break the bank either! You can use items you already have around the house such as fabric scraps for making pillows or coasters; mason jars for DIY terrariums; old books for bookmarks; wine corks for jewelry holders; etc., all with minimal supplies needed from stores like Michaels or Joann Fabrics!
3. Personalize it - If you want your White Elephant gift to stand out even more, personalize it! Add in photos of special memories shared between yourself and the recipient, add in custom text with glitter glue pens onto any item (such as t-shirts), paint pottery pieces with special messages written on them—the possibilities are endless here so let your creativity shine through!
4. Package it up nicely – Wrapping is always key when giving presents no matter what type they may be so don’t forget this step either! Whether you choose paper bags embellished with stickers/ribbons/banners etc., colorful tissue paper filled boxes tied off with string bows, brown kraft paper accented with stamps—all these options give an extra touch which really makes someone feel appreciated and valued when receiving their present too!
Making thoughtful homemade gifts for White Elephant exchanges isn’t difficult if you just remember these simple steps: think outside the box when selecting ideas & materials; get crafty & creative in putting them together; personalize each piece however desired & then package everything up nicely too before finally presenting them as one finished product ready to be gifted away happily–now who wouldn’t love receiving one of those?
